Your framework for what to focus on is solid. Spot on about churn being feedback, but feedback has a shelf life. When we see users missing their "aha" moment or not discovering key features, those insights are worthless if it takes six months to test a fix. That's why we're moving to 6-week concept-to-production cycles with Lovable at the center of it.

Very interesting, thank you.

Regarding feature deprecation - do you feel it’s worth the focus even in those early stages, like lovable?

How do you approach comparing the negative effect a ‘underused’ feature has on the experience/discovery of other ones vs the benefit it does provide to some subset of users?

In my experience it is so hard to convince product people to completely deprecate a feature that has even a little usage (especially in B2B), so would love to hear some stories :)

In general maybe an article about ‘growth by deletion’ might be interesting 🙃 (and if you have a similar one, would love a link!)

Retention is the god metric. Which makes Elena our divine creator! :)

Nice. For Lovable, did you just leave the Aha open to "Getting traffic" or do you have a number for traffic? Also are there multiple aha moments depending on segment (personal use vs business)?
